Note
A regular past form, so one spelling covers both "the brewery lagered the batch" and "the batch was lagered for weeks." The verb is a brewer's word for cold storage that lets beer mature and clear. Either the brewer or the beer itself can be its subject. Watch the context, because the same spelling also stands in for the past of laager, a separate word with its own meaning.
